I have the same situation. The first time I ran it I got a window with the days of the list. I redownloded it by mistake and threw out my copies. I opened the new one and I get those three dots and it is stuck. I followed instructions above, but at least in Mac 7.5 the list does not look like that one. There is no sync, log out, or reload.
All I have is: preference, update, services, hide tidiest, hide others,
quit todist.

I'll try to reboot computer. That may help.

okay. what I did was I deleted everyfile associated with the app. because it still didn't work after rebooting computer. Then I reinstalled the app and yes it now works. 2.5 I believe is the latest app version. Now I have another situation. In trying to figure out how to use it. I went to where it said add a project. So I did, but it was spelled wrong (typo) so I tried to delete it or correct it and I cannot find any way to do that. It certainly is not transparent. I don't understand why some of these apps are so difficult to figure out. If this one doesn't get easier, I'm gonna trash it. I just don't have time for guessing games. Any suggestions?
